Barbara Rodgers Author/Certified Integrative Health Coach Wholey Cow A Simple Guide To Eating And Living It's a proven fact that some of the healthiest cultures around the world share a number of commonalities. These areas, known as Blue Zone (cultures with the largest amount of centenarians) eat healthy foods, stay active, have strong connections and live with a sense of purpose. This life-style sounds like a good recipe for healthy living and one we all should strive for. Unfortunately, many people around the world are sick, over weight and unhealthy, especially in the United States. In fact, over 65% of Americans are overweight and almost half the population has a chronic disease.1 Those are some staggering statistics. It's no wonder so many people need help with their diets. Many people these days are eating the wrong types of foods. Eating too much processed food, sugar and unhealthy fats can all cause weight gain and illness. Many people turn to fad diets to lose weight, but what people really need is a diet over-haul! Fad diets often only provide a temporary solution. What is needed instead is a life-style change with improved eating habits. Our society today consumes more processed food containing artificial preservatives and ingredients than real, wholesome foods. This is a problem and where health coaches come in. Health coaches are a wellness authority and provide mentorship and support to clients. Health coaches are on a mission to educate people about eating healthier and you can find them in over 150 countries around the world. As a health coach, I am passionate about helping people learn how to eat healthier and stay active and why I wrote my book, Wholey Cow A Simple Guide To Eating And Living. In my book, I provide 7 guiding principles to help teach people to eat well and live a healthy life-style. I also talk about the importance of getting back to the basics of eating more whole foods to improve our overall health. In The Ultimate Costa Rica Cookbook, Steve and Nikki Page share how they did just that after making a move to Costa Rica. Once settled in, they were surprised to find that eating wasn't quite the same in their new home and surroundings. In fact, the food choices were quite limited compared to the vast array they were accustomed to back home in the United States. Many items in Costa Rica are more expensive too, making it a challenge to eat. They discovered quickly they had to change their diet to stay within their budget to live in paradise. One thing they did to change their diet was to add in more fruit and vegetables. Costa Rica is known for their tropical fruit and abundance of vegetables. They are also a major exporter of pineapples, bananas, melons and some vegetables. Since fruit and vegetables are plentiful and easy to find in Costa Rica, it was relatively easy to add more of them to their daily meals. They also began substituting fruit for snacks instead of unhealthy items such as chips and cookies they were used to eating and in the process literally cut the crap out of their diet. Ironically, this is something that health coaches teach their clients and I wrote about in my book. Adding in more fruits and vegetables to your diet and crowding out unhealthy items is important and can make a big difference. Costa Rica has some of the best tasting fruit in the world. And who doesn't like a fresh, juicy pineapple or watermelon? I recently had the opportunity to visit Costa Rica and have to say I had some of the sweetest pineapple I ever tasted. It makes my mouth water just thinking about it.
